When it comes to short and innovative films, it’s always something that I’m excited to check out. Christos Nikou’s first feature Apples is just that. Nikou’s Greek indie stars Aris Servetalis, Sofia Georgovassili and Anna Kalaitzidou and takes inspiration from filmmakers Lanthimos and Kaufman with evident Black Mirror themes. 21/2/2021 #GFF21 review: Riders of JusticeBy Adam Ray Palmer
The Glasgow Film Festival usually serves up a random, hi-tempo foreign language film that just ends up being bat-sh*t crazy… in 2021, it’s Riders of Justice. Last year it was the Icelandic movie Eden, and this year it’s Denmark’s finest from the writer/director Anders Thomas Jensen. 21/2/2021 #GFF21 review: MinariBy Adam Ray Palmer

When the London Film Festival programme was announced, Harry Macqueen’s Supernova was a-top of my must-see list. For a second feature film, Macqueen’s drama is a brilliant tour-de-force in the strength of love and adoration. Let’s get into it… 8/10/2020 LFF'64 review: ShirleyBy Adam Ray Palmer
This has been a long-time coming for me. Ever since I missed it in February on the early festival circuits, I thought I’d never get my chance in the press circle. But alas! Thankfully LFF picked it up and finally I was able to absorb Josephine Decker’s Shirley in all its glory! 7/10/2020 LFF'64: MangroveBy Adam Ray Palmer
Steve McQueen is back on the big screen with his new five-film anthology. Two of the features are debuting at the London Film Festival this year. Later in the festival we have his Lovers Rock, but today I am looking at his powerful and moving Mangrove… |
